that's disappointing. the recognitions remains one of the most incredible things i've read and i just managed to find a copy of JR the other week. i guess it's worth reading as the only other thing he's written.

I don't know how to go on dates. The conversation part at least. I can't seem to break out of the monotonous early conversation. I'm just trying to make her laugh and have a good time. Previous girls I've gotten with we're usually friends first, from a group of friends or work, so we're usually interacting with others and I do well in groups since I can just chime in and make people laugh and not have to carry the conversation.
But with me and this girl it's just one on one. I don't know what the fuck to talk about and I feel like it's boring. We've already done the gay "what's your favorite movie, book, etc", now what? I sorta wanna move on to deeper conversations (not that I know how to move there) but I think it's important just to have a good time and not get too deep

/tv/ is fucking retarded and probably the worst board. They can't even discuss their own board topic.
They don't understand art, at all. There is no "open for interpretation" or conversation to be had about a movies intent. For them there HAS to be an answer and any other way is pretentious or wrong. Like the Sopranos ending, they have to be certain Tony gets killed. They have to discuss how they know for certain he gets killed, who killed him, etc. The possibility of it not having an answer at all is incomprehensible to them.
Or just in a thread about the movie Silence, at the end when the main character stamps his foot on the picture of Jesus. There's no way it's not the main characters voice in his head who tells him to step on the picture. It can't be God who talks to him. There can be no mystery or discussion about whether it was himself who said it or God or if it matters either way.

I fucking hate them all

That's a very cute cat. Probably something by Murakami, I heard he's into cats.
